The more we discuss about this the more I get convinced that what we (or at least me) intend for framework-only distribution should be better named "OFBiz-core". The OFBiz-core could consist of framework + party + content + commonext. A distribution with these components set up is somewhat similar to what I mean for a framework where developer can start building its office automation application without the necessity to disable anything but having all the power of the framework and the "core" applications. -Bruno
